About Amber
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the State of New York and earned Bachelor of Science degrees in Psychology and Neuroscience from Syracuse University, where I also earned a Master of Social Work degree. As a licensed therapist focused on providing comprehensive mental health care, I have worked in a variety of settings including community mental health clinics, non-profit organizations, private practice, academic settings, and clinical research.
With a background in moral injury, I am presently completing training to become a certified grief counselor to address trauma related to grief, loss, and bereavement. While working with clients, I focus on developing a therapeutic alliance built upon trust, acceptance, and unconditional positive regard to facilitate mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness.
Through humanistic, grief-informed, and mindfulness-based practices, we may approach chronic illness, loss, and bereavement in a way that facilitates healing amidst grief. Acknowledging how challenging it can be to initiate therapy, I commend you for seeking help and welcome you to schedule a consultation to assist you on your path toward mental wellness.
